We went on the World’s CHEAPEST Antarctica Cruise 🇦🇶 (Sapphire Princess)

[@toddh9753]

My wife and I will be taking a 18 day cruise from Florida to Buenos Aries and then 17 days to Antarctica for the second half of our trip. I saw your video first and told her we need to do that! Thanks for the prompting. All booked on the Saphire Princess for December 2024.

[@dabbleandtravel]

Omgomg!!! Amazing! Thank you & enjoy!

[@dianacrane4532]

This is essentially a cheap booze cruise with sight seeing only. You don't get to go onto the continent, but you do get to buy expensive souvenirs from a vendor on the ship! Yipee!!!!!! And a certificate - WOW!!!!

[@robertclark6890]

Thank you for posting this video. My wife and I recently traveled on the Sapphire Princess but on a cruise to Alaska. We enjoyed it very much although had some problems due to engine problems on the ship causing port cancellations. So we are going back to Alaska next year on the Coral Princess. We have friends who went to Antarctica on an expedition cruise and we didn't think we could ever go as we are an older couple and my wife has some difficulties with mobility and walking. But now after seeing your video I believe we could definitely go on a Princess cruise to Antarctica. Something ne for our bucket list!

[@shahidulislam1652]

Hello sir watching from Dhaka Bangladesh 🇧🇩

[@kanerskougar3503]

Antarctica is my # 1 bucket list destination, but I wouldn't be happy with just cruising thru there, I MUST go on an excursion trip where they take you onto land and see the penguins and other wildlife in person

[@dabbleandtravel]

That would be amazing but unfortunately way out of our price range lol we’re happy to have seen Antarctica and wildlife and then one day maybe we can do an expedition (hopefully)🥰

[@dianacrane4532]

Completely agree! I could give you a recommendation, but this is not the place for it.

[@ioana.p]

The ship is nicer than the others I've seen, but if I go to Antarctica I want to go on zodiac expeditions and get close to the penguins and seals, go kayaking through ice fields, stand on a sheet of ice in the middle of Antarctica and take a quick dip in the cold water!

[@M4A1Nerve]

Not worth it. If you want to do Antartica, do NOT do it on a large named cruise line. Pay the extra money to do it on a small expedition boat. You don’t get to get off or see the better things on a big boat like this. 2000 people? Lol my ship had 160 and it blew this cruise out of the water. Pay the money, so it right. You will hit yourself if you make the trek there and just get to look from afar.

[@dabbleandtravel]

2 totally different experiences, and it’s a lot of extra money 🥰

[@jennny]

I’m looking into doing a cruise with Silversea, which would be a smaller expedition line. Did you feel safe in the smaller expedition boat?

[@M4A1Nerve]

@@jennny Silversea I heard is awesome. I’d recommend the Silversea Endeavor. I felt more than safe on the smaller expeditions ships. You definitely feel the water more, but these ships were built for that particular purpose; rough seas. And obviously the crew knows what’s safe and not safe. Crew and experience is entirely different than a cruise type of environment which is much much better in every single way.

[@jedistar4374]

Very beautiful scenery. I will be heading towards Antarctica next January on an expedition cruise . I could have done what you guys did. However, stepping on Antarctica it self would be an accomplishment for me being to all the seven continents , unlike on a sightseeing cruise you are not allowed to disembark the ship to head over on to land. Expeditions cruises are definitely expensive and a regular person would rather buy a car with that money instead of spending it on a cruise. Expeditions cruises normally has 2 disembarkation a day, which can be a zodiac tour through the ice, kayaking, paddle boarding or landing on the 7th continent to see the wild life of the Antarctica , and to top it off with a polar plunge. So each type of the cruse has its pros and cons , and so I have been working really hard to be able to afford this type of expedition for many years. Very nice and helpful about the weather too, and what to bring.

[@dianacrane4532]

Awesome!!!! It is worth saving up to do Antarctica on an Expedition cruise. Antarctica is much more than looking at it and the wildlife at a distance on a large cruise ship. Only 100 people at a time can step on the continent at a time, so it's impossible on this ship. I thought it was interesting when they put down Expedition cruises and had never been on one.

I get the appeal of getting to see Antarctica fairly cheaply, but having done an expedition trip in January on Quark Ultramarine, it’s a totally different experience. I couldn’t imagine going there, getting so close and not actually landing or getting off the ship. But enjoyed seeing what the other way of doing it was like! Here’s my Quark experience: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aXzcoJ2YhbCsetUsi=s4riPxpJmX0sqBkx

Amazing video! hi from BA 🇦🇷

[@dabbleandtravel]

Hello there! Thank you!

[@stephenjensen5358]

I did a 9-day expeditionary cruise for only $5000. We spent 5 days on Antarctica. There were only about 300 people on board. Antarctic regulations only allow for a total of about 300 people a day getting off a ship. This is why expeditionary cruises are so small. So everyone can get off the ship each day. We did a polar plug. Went to numerous beaches to see penguins and seals. Saw many whales. We visited Port Lockroy. We went penguin-sledding and had a snowball fight. We saw a leopard seal, and an iceberg flip over. It wasn't fancy, but we didn't go for a ship. We went to experience Antarctica. If a big ship is all you can afford, then that's fine. But if you do your research, you can get an expeditionary ticket for not a lot more, and I promise you won't regret it.

[@dabbleandtravel]

Sounds like you had an amazing experience! We would love to do it one day :)

[@davidscott6972]

Would you please share the name of the cruise line you used. How large was the ship? Thanks ahead.

[@stephenjensen5358]

@davidscott6972 It was on Antarpply Expeditions USHUAIA, and the ship was just short of 300 feet, or about 85 meters long. There were less than 300 people on board.

[@costasworldofmusicmemories5792]

Antarctica has been on our bucket list for a long time. We are planning a trip on that same cruise in 2026. Things we should look out for? Did you take the Polar Plunge? We're there any excursions from the ship you could do? Looks like a lot of fun. Great Video. All the best to you both😄😄 from Harriet, Jim and Yuki

[@dabbleandtravel]

Hey guys! Antarctica is a once in a lifetime opportunity we’d highly recommend. As this is not an expedition you do not do the polar plunge and do not set foot in Antarctica because of the amount of people on board. However the price point and the facilities means you can still scenic cruise through Antarctica and it was bloody amazing! Excursions are at the port destinations!

[@dianacrane4532]

@@dabbleandtravel If you want a full Antarctica experience, please know this ship is not it. At no time do you get to step on land and that's a truly amazing and life changing experience. The zodiacs are a wonderful way to get close to the wildlife and glaciers. The ice actually makes sounds as you pass by them. Stunning! The polar plunge is an experience like no other! Certainly wouldn't trade it for a certificate. Decide what type of ship you are going on with a full understanding. There are expedition-type ships that are not as expensive as you might think. It's worthwhile looking into all of your options.

The difference with a cruise and an expedition on a small ship is that expedition gets its people to set foot on the antarctica itself

Exactly that…not to mention the price of the cruise 😅

[@ping41]

Experience won't be complete without setting foot on the Antarctic soil/ice for that matter and seeing the wild animals up close, not too close as recommended by IAATO, every penny on the expedition is all worth it though

If you check the itinerary, you’ll see the days cruising Antarctica , crossing to and from the drake and then the day at sea prior to the falklands is the 7 days.
